Paon blanc - Seule la femelle niche et s’occupe des petits. Ces derniers suivent très rapidement leur mère et apprennent à se nourrir par imitation. Ils sont capables de voler à l’âge d’une semaine et commencent à prendre leur indépendance à huit semaines.

Dabi and White peacock symbolism:

A white peacock isn't a separate species, it's an Indian blue peacock with a genetic condition called leucism. That’s why a white peacock still has those striking blue-gray eyes rather than the pink or red seen in true albinos.

Peacocks naturally symbolize transformation and renewal because they molt and regrow their spectacular feathers each year. The white peacock adds another layer to this by shedding the past and stepping forward in a form that feels almost divine.

Seeing a white peacock feels a bit like seeing a ghost or an angel. They are rare and elusive, making them symbols of the mysteries of life, unseen forces, and the idea that not everything beautiful fits into what we expect.

In Buddhist symbolism, peacocks represent immortality, grace, and the soul’s evolution.

With their wide fan of "eyed" feathers, peacocks have long been seen as protectors and watchers. The white version symbolizes protection on a spiritual or psychic level, guarding not just the body, but also the soul.

Most white peacocks seen today are bred selectively in captivity, where their striking looks can be preserved without the risks that wild living would bring.

Hera in Kanathos

There is this really weird myth that Hera goes to this spring called Kanathos every year to restore her virginity. Decided to reinterpret it as her going to the spring to get some much needed relaxation and privacy.

Saw this Beautiful White Peacock Butterfly (Anartia jatrophae) 🦋 while walking home from The Pet Project yesterday ☺️

This is the first time seeing one outside Easterlin Park.
